Vintage & Retro

Vintage & Retro gathers Pearltee designs that borrow the look of decades past: sun-faded color palettes, sunset stripes, distressed lettering, arcade-style badges and the kind of chunky typography you used to find on thrift-store racks. The goal is a shirt that looks like it already has a story, without the stretched-out collar of a real thirty-year-old tee.

Many retro designs use a deliberately worn texture inside the artwork itself. That texture is part of the print, not a defect, and it will not change the feel of the fabric. If a shirt arrives with a printing flaw that is not part of the design, send us a photo and we will make it right under our Refund Policy.

Retro graphics often look best with a relaxed fit, so some customers size up one step for a roomier, broken-in feel. Before you do, check the garment length in the Size Guide, because sizing up adds length as well as width. Every order ships free to the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, as explained on our Shipping & Delivery page.
